RWBY: Son of Qrow Branwen
(Let me just make sure there are no confusions, Liam and Ruby are NOT twins. He was born 2 years before Ruby, which is why I'm trying to make him seem a bit more mature than Ruby)
Liam's POV, Vale
"Blaaake?!" Ruby and Yang shouted. "Blaake?! Where are you?!"
Ruby turned around to me and Weiss. "You guys aren't helping!"
"Oh! You know who might be able to help help?" Weiss asked. "The police."
"Weiss." Ruby growled.
"It was just an idea!"
"Yeah, a bad one."
"Weiss, I think we should hear her side of the story before we jump to any conclusions." Yang said.
"I think when we hear it, you'll all realize I was right." Weiss replied.
"And I think Weiss' hair looks wonderful today!" a new voice said.
"Ah! Penny! Where did you come from?!" Ruby asked her.
"Yeeeah, I'll just be going this way." I pointed behind me and started to walk away.
I put my hands in my pockets as I started heading towards...somewhere.
A few minutes later
I turned down a street as a loud explosion went off, catching my attention. I glanced behind me and saw smoke rise.
I sighed, knowing it was, most likely, Blake.
"Can't anything be easy?" I asked myself. "Damnit." I started running towards the source of the explosion before turning into my bird form and flying the rest of the way.
I changed back as I approached the docks, landing on the roof of a warehouse and glancing over the edge to see Blake fighting Roman.
I jumped down and rolled to my feet, pulling out my brass knuckles as I ran at Roman, throwing a right cross and knocking him back.
"Liam?!" Blake asked, surprised. "What-"
"You don't really have time to talk." Roman said as he shot at me, hitting my chest and knocking me into a White Fang member. "Now that he's out of the way, shall we continue?"
I got to my feet and was about to rush Roman when I felt someone grab my shoulder. I turned around and punched the White Fang member away as a half dozen more surrounded me.
"Very well." I put my brass knuckles away and placed my hand on the hilt of my katana. "Who's first?"
The closest Fang member ran at me, swinging his sword as he reached me. I jumped over him and slashed downwards while I was in midair, pressing the button on the hilt to add a bit more damage. He was knocked back as the other WF members rushed me.
As they closed in on me, someone jumped behind me, pressing their back against mine.
"Need some help?" he asked me.
I glanced back at him. "Thanks."
Another explosion caught my attention as Blake was blasted back.
The Faunus pushed passed the White Fang members to help Blake as I continued to fight.
"Hey!" Ruby yelled from a nearby roof.
"Hey, Red. Isn't it passed your bedtime?" Roman said.
Ruby looked behind her and Roman took the chance to shoot her, knocking her back.
A few seconds passed and the orange haired girl from the other day, walked towards the edge of the building. She stood there for a few seconds before a dozen swords came out of her back. They looked as though they were levitating in the air.
"Uhm." I scratched my head as a White Fang member stepped beside me.
"Never seen something like that before." he said. "Have you?"
I glanced at him before hitting him in the back of the head with the hilt of my katana, knocking him out. "Nope."
She started taking down dozens of Fang members in seconds. "How the hell is she controlling those?"
Two Bullheads flew overhead. A large green laser cut both of the ships in half a few seconds later.
"Damn, dude."
I glanced at Roman to see him board a Bullhead.
I took a running jump and turned into my bird form, flying up and changing back, landing on top of it.
I was about to plunge my katana into the Bullhead to balance myself but the pilot rolled the ship to shake me off. I fell a few feet before turning into a crow and changing back as I flew closer to the ground.
"Damn." I sheathed my katana. "Almost had him."
A few minutes later
"How did you do that?" Blake asked me.
"Do what?"
"Turn into a bird." she replied.
"Oh! It's part of my semblance." I told her. "I can change between a human and a crow."
"Is that what you meant when you said some people might consider you to be a Faunus?"
I nodded. "Faunus, human, I don't really care what people consider me to be."
"I see."
"There you are!" Weiss said as she and Yang approached us.
"Look Weiss, it's not what you think, she explained the whole thing, you see she doesn't actually wear a bow, she has kitty ears and they're actually kind cute." Ruby said as Weiss walked passed her.
"Weiss, I want you to know that I'm no longer associated with the White Fang. Back when I was-" Blake said.
"Stop." Weiss said. "Do you have any idea how long we've been searching for you? 12 hours. That means I've had 12 hours to think about this, and in that 12 hours, I've decided...I don't care."
"You don't care?" Blake repeated.
"You said you weren't one of them anymore, right?"
"No, I-I haven't been since I was younger-"
"Apupupup." Weiss silenced her. "I don't want to hear it. All I want to know is that the next time something this big comes up, you'll come to your teammates, and not..." she glanced at the Faunus. "Someone else."
"Of course." Blake nodded.
"Yeah! Team RWBY is back together!" Ruby shouted.
I smirked as I began to walk away.
"Oh, hey!" the Faunus guy ran up behind me, tapping my shoulder.
"Yeah?"
"You're that guy from a few days ago, right?" he asked.
"Yeah." I nodded. "I guess you got away?"
He smirked. "Why did you let me get away?"
"Because I've seen enough to know that most Faunus are wrongfully accused." I replied. "Besides, the guy chasing you looked like he could use the exercise."
He chuckled. "What's your name?"
"Liam."
"Sun."
I nodded. "See you around." I said as I continued to walk away.
"See ya!" he waved as I made my way back to Beacon.
A few minutes later, Beacon dorms
I walked into my room. "Where have you been?" Mina asked as I stepped inside.
"Helping team RWBY find their teammate." I replied. "Why?"
"Just wondering where you've been all day." she said with a shrug.
"Riiiight." I fell into my bed. "I'm going to sleep."
